A new design of a highly efficient hydraulic turbine on the basis of the specific hydrodynamic effect

Traditional free flow turbines slow down water stream using its kinetic energy. This article describes a method for deriving energy from a free water stream using a unique hydraulic turbine which unlike traditional hydraulic turbines speeds up the water stream using potential energy thanks to a specific hydraulic effect. The article also describes a method of mathematic calculations of output capacity of this kind of turbines. The design of a turbine which also uses this special hydraulic effect is described in the article [1].

At RNRG’s headquarters in Hinesburg, Vermont, the hillsides are painted with the vibrant hues of autumn. While breathtakingly beautiful, nature’s colorful display is also a reminder that winter is right around the corner. As the first frost looms, now is the perfect time to consider Hybrid XT Turbine Control Sensors to ensure that your turbines continue to run smoothly, despite the icy ravages of winter.
In 2016, RNRG designed, tested, and commercialized two new Hybrid XT upgrade kits—one for...

For industrial companies using a boiler for its facility, some type of boiler feed water treatment system is usually necessary to ensure an efficient process and quality steam generation. The most appropriate boiler feed water treatment system will help the facility avoidcostly plant downtime,expensive maintenance fees, andboiler failure as a result of scaling, corrosion, and fouling of the boiler and downstream equipment.
Butwhat is a boiler feed water treatment system and how does it work?
The complex answer...

When treating boiler feed water (the combination of boiler makeup and condensate return water), several issues can arise that cause boiler scaling, corrosion, fouling, and system failure.
Below, we break down the most common boiler feed water issues and how to avoid them to help ensure system efficiency and operational safety. While treating boiler feed water is extremely unique to each individual process and boiler, these are generalized issues that typically occur. Any specific boiler feed water treatment...

When it comes to choosing technology for boiler feed water treatment, knowing the feed water source quality in relation to the water quality required for your specific boiler is essential, as inadequate water treatment can lead to the scaling, corrosion, and fouling of the boiler and downstream equipment. We’ve mentioned this before in some of our previous boiler feed water treatment articles, but this bears repeating as some of these issues, if neglected, can be pretty serious.
Although the water quality...

Lihir Island, Papua New Guinea – 2005In December 2003, Lihir Management Company awarded GDA a contract for supply and site supervision for a 30MW (net) geothermal power plant. In 2005, Lihir contracted with GDA for an additional 20 MW of plant equipment.The picture at the right shows the main power house and annex under construction. The power house is the larger open section which houses three 10 MW turbine-generator sets with their associated condensers and gas extraction systems. The smaller attached...
